I've just spent the last 6 hours troubleshooting steam input on 3rd party flatpaks, also alacarte has a bug that doesn't let you save property changes, also I can't use vim as root anymore for some reason I don't care to look into, also symlinking some of my media was a pain. Band-aid solutions have been found for the first 3 and the last was me being an idiot and not having a GUI solution to symlinks because Nautilus is arse compared to ms file explorer.

I fucking hate pop-os and flatpaks, cosmic launcher is a pile of junk, and my 4k monitor has created an infinite amount of scaling issues to work through.

Windows was a slow burn of minor inconvenience, Linux is a series of kicks in the nuts.

I suppose you could just use arch Linux to get away from pop-os and flatpaks.

Auto HDR... I have one HDR monitor and one SDR monitor and w11 plays nicely, Nvidia app still won't work with more than one monitor for their version of auto HDR

It is getting there. KDE has support and I think gnome is not to far behind

i was held back a while because no Roblox on Linux but I've resorted to using my phone if i really want to(ps: little mad at Roblox for killing off vinegar and the rest).

Gnome is better in my experience

[-] SilentObserver@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Windows 11 may be the first major version of Windows that I never use on my own personal rig. I’ve used 98, XP, 7, 8/8.1, and 10 throughout my life. But I’ve got no reason to touch 11 when Arch (or fill in with your distro of choice) with KDE exists. It’s just a much better experience.

Shoot, even my daughters share a computer with endeavorOS+KDE installed and they have no problems using it. Windows 11 would refuse to even install on that same machine.

Ugh, my field (tech) means i have to have more than a passing familiarity with it

[-] SilentObserver@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

It's definitely different if you're getting paid for it. I plan to get into I.T. within the next year or two if I can, so I'm sure I'll have to get familiar with Windows 11.

I mean, technically I do use Windows 11 daily at work. Gotta be able to order stuff, send emails, and manage my time card. All that is done on a Windows 11 PC. But nobody is paying me to put it on my home PC, so I'm not going to.
